LionsFan Posted June 21, 2021 Report Share Posted June 21, 2021 Would Josh Auty fit for either Proctor or Bates, or would we need to replace them both for him? Are Fredriksen or Ruml who rode at Glasgow in the GP qualifier looking for a team? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pleased we have him as the way he's going it's more than likely he'll easily put a point & a half on his average for the diamonds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My understanding is that the once the required matches are completed Dan will move into the team possibly above Ty with Josh going down to reserve with Joe which is quite worrying with the amount of time Josh crashes out of meetings and is missing through injury with guests very limited at reserve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IainB Posted June 22, 2021 Report Share Posted June 22, 2021 Can't help but think that the Leicester track and Ty's riding style are not a great match, he tends to full gas it down the straight and then fling it into the bends with a sharp turn. I can imagine that if you're consistently not making starts things could soon get on top of you around BP. Has he stood down from Sheffield?

False dawn Posted June 22, 2021 Report Share Posted June 22, 2021 I have to say that Ty's comment to the extent that he was trying to do a full time job and ride for two clubs, a bit surprising. I know it depends a lot on the full time job, but just riding for two clubs alone must get hectic at times. I have rated Ty in the past but his all round performance for Leicester this season has been very disappointing. I left Brough Park on Sunday very angry indeed and was 99% certain then that we'd seen Ty's last race for Leicester (for now at least). I wish him the very best. He can be good enough to make a very positive contribution to any club. But right now, Leicester need a second string that can score a solid 5 or 6, especially when running RR for Josh Bates. The twins have really stepped up of late, especially Dan. But we have to remember they are still only 17 with limited experience. It's not fair to rely on them to compensate for two low scoring second strings. If the team sort out those 2 and 4 positions, they'll be a match for any team, home or away. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slidershuttleworth Posted June 22, 2021 Report Share Posted June 22, 2021 On his day a fine rider, remember him chasing down and passing Eric Riss on the outside in the playoff semi final. Hope he rediscovers what is missing , could be a big loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
